TOWN OF BUENA VISTA
MINUTES OF THE BUENA VISTA BOARD OF TRUSTEES
Piñon Room, Community Center 715 E. Main Street
Tuesday, September 10, 2019
MINUTES OF THE MEETINGS OF THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES ARE A TRANSCRIPT OF THE GOVERNING
BODY’S ACTIONS RATHER THAN A VERBATIM RECORD OF DELIBERATIONS.
Work Session – 6:00pm: Potential for Tax Question to Fund Emergency Services for Capital Expenditures
In attendance for the Work Session were Mayor Lacy; Trustees Fay, Jenkins, Swisher, and Volpe; and the
following Town staff: Town Administrator Phillip Puckett, Principal Planner Mark Doering, Town
Treasurer Michelle Stoke, Police Chief Jimmy Tidwell, Fire Chief Dixon Villers, and Deputy Town Clerk
Melanie Jacobs.
Town Administrator Phillip Puckett opened the discussion by noting that Buena Vista will hold a regular
municipal election in April and could decide to add a measure to the November general election ballot.
The Town may want to present voters with a ballot question regarding a sales tax (or other type of tax)
to fund public safety needs; if so, Puckett recommends bringing in a consultant in the near future to
provide ‘pre-referendum services.’ These would include assessing Police and Fire Department
requirements (a new ladder truck, possibly a public safety complex to house both Departments as their
current locations are no longer adequate) and coordinating community outreach to explain to the
citizens of Buena Vista why these capital improvements and acquisitions are necessary. Puckett
explained that the Town would apply for grants to help cover costs, but most of the expense would be
paid for via a loan or bond. Trustees requested that a representative of the consultant in question (Wold
Architects and Engineers) appear at their next meeting to talk about planning for this project, with the
goal of putting the issue to voters during the November 2020 election.
Work Session – 6:30pm: County Wide Housing Authority
The same attendees were present for the second Work Session.
Becky Gray, Chaffee County Director of Housing, briefly explained the history behind the push to create
a Regional Housing Authority in Chaffee County and the reasons why the existence of such an Authority
would be desirable: it would allow local jurisdictions to coordinate housing efforts, it could take on debt
as a separate governmental entity (thereby allowing it to finance larger projects than any municipality
could handle on its own), and its role would be sufficiently flexible to allow for significant local control of
housing initiatives. The Steering Committee has already decided that each participating jurisdiction
(Chaffee County, Buena Vista, Salida, and Poncha Springs) should have representation on the Housing
Authority’s Board, and that the Board should operate by consensus. A contract outlining the Authority’s
proposed role will be presented to Trustees this year, after which the exact composition of its Board will
be decided upon and five-year Strategic and Funding Plans will be formulated.

suggestions.

BUSINESS ITEMS
Health Disparities Grant Program
Andrea Carlstrom, Chaffee County Public and Environmental Health Director, and Becky Gray, Chaffee
County Director of Housing, explained that the Health Disparities Grant Program is run by the Office of
Health Equity and that the goal of the program is to ensure that all Colorado citizens have equitable
access to the ‘social determinants of health.’ These determinants include decent housing, healthy food,
transportation, education, employment opportunities, and the like. She and Becky Gray have already
conducted a survey of Chaffee County residents to gather local data about these topics, and they will
ultimately generate a report on their findings which they will then present to the Trustees. Their intent is
to generate creative methods of ‘igniting the market’ so that local business will step in to provide
needed goods/services and reduce health disparities.
Public Hearing – Major Planned Unit Development (PUD) Modification
Applicant Charlie Chupp, 605 South Main, Buena Vista, stepped to the podium to explain that the major
PUD modification will be necessary to allow him to build a modular home manufacturing plant in
Colorado Center PUD. The building will be 110,000 sq. ft. total and is expected to produce 1,200 units
per year. In order to accommodate the structure, the north setback will need to be reduced from 25 to
23 feet, and the south setback will need to be reduced from 10 to 6 feet.
Principal Planner Mark Doering elaborated on Chupp’s request, noting that in addition to the change in
setbacks, the project will require that seven one-acre lots be consolidated into a single seven-acre lot.
Doering then went through the criteria required by the Unified Development Code to be met in order for
a request of this sort to be approved, noting that the project fulfilled the requirements and that the
Planning and Zoning Commission had recommended approval by the Trustees.
Mayor Lacy opened the public hearing. No one wished to comment so he closed the public hearing.
MOTION NO. 3:
MOVE TO APPROVE ORDINANCE NO. 12, APPROVING A MAJOR PUD MODIFICATION FOR THE
COLORADO CENTER PUD.
RESULT: CARRIED
MOVER: Trustee Swisher
SECONDER: Trustee Volpe
AYES: Fay, Jenkins, Swisher, Volpe
Review of Town-Owned Real Property
Town Administrator Puckett explained that this conversation initially began in the wake of the Collegiate
Commons land swap, which left the Town in possession of parcels whose use has yet to be determined.
Becky Gray then stepped in to inform the Board that she and Town staff had been discussing what to do
with eight Town-owned parcels, encompassing over 80 acres in total. The lots have been divided into
two tiers: tier one includes actionable parcels that have infrastructure available; tier two consists of
those parcels that would require significant improvements before they could be utilized. As background
BOARD OF TRUSTEES OF THE TOWN OF BUENA VISTA Page 4 of 6
Regular Meeting September 10, 2019

to the discussion, she went through some Comprehensive Plan goals and priorities relevant to this topic,
along with demographic/employment data and projections.
Gray described the three tier-one properties: a parcel at East Arkansas and Beldan zoned R-2 OT, a
parcel west of Collegiate Commons zoned MU-2, and a parcel south of Collegiate Commons zoned R-2.
She noted that Town could sell the parcels, it could sell one (or more) and use the proceeds to fund
infrastructure improvements for other parcels, it could donate the land to an entity that would then
develop the land in some desirable way, or it could issue RFPs requesting that bidders develop the
parcels for specific uses. Gray closed by asking Trustees to talk to their constituents about this issue in
order to find out what the community wants. The Board agreed to continue discussing this topic at a
future meeting.
Camping Update from Code Enforcement – Special Event, Seasonal, Transient, and Private Property
Camping
Town Administrator Puckett introduced this topic by stating that a local employer had come to Town Hall
this past summer to inquire about allowing its seasonal workforce to camp on its property, and that Staff
had decided to roll this inquiry into a more comprehensive discussion of the matter.
Code Enforcement Officer Grant Bryans described the four types of camping/RV use that he had been
seeing in Town. Special Event camping involves the use of Town-owned property to accommodate event
attendees, such as happened this year with Ride the Rockies. Seasonal camping pertains to employers
(most often rafting companies) allowing their employees to camp on their property for certain limited
periods of time. Transient camping is defined as tent/RV use on public property without permission.
Private property camping most often involves someone parking an RV in a driveway and then living in it,
and less frequently involves someone tent camping in a yard.
Bryans explained that he was looking for guidance from the Board regarding how to address these
issues. Enforcement of the time limit on RV camping (it is allowed for 14 days out of 60) is onerous, as it
requires repeated visits to a property and it can be difficult to tell via visual inspection whether or not an
RV is being used as living quarters. He suggested some options: allowing RV/tent camping in certain zone
districts while banning it in others, issuing free Town camping permits if certain conditions are met,
and/or adding teeth to the language pertaining to occupied RVs (such as defining an RV that is plugged in
as ‘occupied’). He also expressed a desire to meet with rafting and other types of employers who have
allowed or want to allow seasonal camping on their property.
Mayor Lacy, with the concurrence of the Board, asked Bryans to return at a later date with suggestions
for specific Code changes, along with information gathered during discussions with employers who have
been allowing camping. Town Attorney Parker suggested that regulations on employer camping could
include requirements for sanitary facilities, mandated distances from residential areas, and limits on
density in tent camps.

1. Town Administrator – Puckett reviewed highlights of the report in the packet and responded
to Trustee comments and questions.
Puckett asked the Board if they would like him to pursue a recent offer made by a solar
provider to install solar panels to help offset the Town’s electricity use. The Trustees
indicated that they would like to hear the proposal, but that the matter is not a priority at
this time. Puckett went on to thank everyone for helping to make the Seven Peaks festival
run as smoothly as it did.

Commerce to have Trustees attend one of their Board meetings; Trustees expressed a willingness to do
so.

August 21, 2019
The Honorable Duff Lacy, Mayor of Buena Vista and Buena Vista Board of Trustees
715 E Main Street
Buena Vista, CO 81211
Dear Mayor Lacy and Trustees,
We are writing to respectfully request that the town of Buena Vista makes a commitment to
opt-out of enacting the Marijuana Hospitality Establishment bill (HB 19-1230), which authorizes
the creation of local licenses to allow adults to consume marijuana in designated public places
that could include cafes, restaurants, pot clubs, tasting rooms and hotel lounges. We are
concerned about the risks this bill poses to increased instances of drugged driving by those who
consume in these places, the positive perception of marijuana use to our local youth, the
increased burden on law enforcement, and the fact that there is not enough research out there
regarding the long-term effects of marijuana use.
The Colorado Department of Transportation has said that marijuana, like alcohol, "impairs
critical abilities needed to drive safely, including: slowed reaction time, difficulties in road
tracking and lane-position variability, decreased, divided attention; impaired cognitive
performance; and impaired executive functions, including route planning, decision-making, and
risk-taking or a combination of both." CDPHE observes there is substantial evidence that "it
takes up to four hours after ingesting marijuana edibles to reach peak blood THC levels.''
We are concerned that adults who eat, smoke, or vape marijuana on site in public consumption
establishments are not going to remain for the time needed to resolve their impairment.
Furthermore, allowing marijuana use in public places also visited by minors leads to a reduced
perception of harm and increased normalization in the eyes of our youth. We are deeply
concerned about the likelihood of increased drugged driving and the harm that further
normalizing marijuana use will have on our kids, particularly before our community is prepared
to mitigate such significant risk and harms.
Sincerely,
The Chaffee County Youth Alliance

House Bill 19-1230 – Marijuana Hospitality Establishments
“’Marijuana hospitality establishment’ [or “tasting rooms”] means a facility, which may be
mobile, licensed to permit the consumption of marijuana pursuant to this article 12; rules
promulgated pursuant to this article 12; and the provisions of an enacted, initiated, or referred
ordinance or resolution of the local jurisdiction in which the licensee operates.”
• Permits related to MJ hospitality establishments can be issued starting Jan. 1, 2020
• Intent is to allow public marijuana use only in licensed designated facilities (public parks,
trails would still be marijuana-free)
o Can be in the form of smoking, vaping or edible marijuana
• Requires an "opt-in”… city councils would need to pass an ordinance allowing for the
establishment of tasting rooms, or communities could "opt-in" via question on a ballot.
• *A RETAIL FOOD ESTABLISHMENT… THAT DOES NOT HOLD A [liquor] LICENSE… MAY APPLY
FOR A LICENSE TO OPERATE A MARIJUANA HOSPITALITY ESTABLISHMENT IN AN ISOLATED
PORTION OF THE PREMISES OF THE RETAIL FOOD ESTABLISHMENT (must be 21 & up)
• [allows] MARIJUANA HOSPITALITY ESTABLISHMENTS THAT ARE MOBILE [e.g. tour bus]
• [requires] A SALES LIMIT PER TRANSACTION FOR RETAIL MARIJUANA AND RETAIL
MARIJUANA PRODUCTS THAT MAY BE SOLD TO A PATRON OF A RETAIL MARIJUANA
HOSPITALITY AND SALES ESTABLISHMENT… MUST NOT BE AN AMOUNT LESS THAN ONE
GRAM OF RETAIL MARIJUANA FLOWER, ONE-QUARTER OF ONE GRAM OF RETAIL
MARIJUANA CONCENTRATE, OR A RETAIL MARIJUANA PRODUCT CONTAINING NOT MORE
THAN TEN MILLIGRAMS OF ACTIVE THC
• LOCAL JURISDICTION MAY AUTHORIZE THE OPERATION OF MARIJUANA HOSPITALITY
ESTABLISHMENTS WITHIN ITS JURISDICTION THROUGH THE ENACTMENT OF AN
ORDINANCE OR THROUGH A REFERRED OR INITIATED MEASURE. IF A COUNTY OR CITY AND
COUNTY ACTS THROUGH AN INITIATED MEASURE, THE PROPONENTS SHALL SUBMIT A
PETITION SIGNED BY NOT LESS THAN FIFTEEN PERCENT OF THE REGISTERED ELECTORS IN
THE COUNTY OR CITY AND COUNTY
• IF A MUNICIPALITY, COUNTY, CITY, OR CITY AND COUNTY AUTHORIZES THE OPERATION OF
MARIJUANA HOSPITALITY ESTABLISHMENTS, IT MAY ADOPT AN APPROVAL REQUIREMENT
THAT COMPLIES WITH THE REQUIREMENTS OF THIS ARTICLE 12. THE MUNICIPALITY,
COUNTY, CITY, OR CITY AND COUNTY MAY REQUIRE ADDITIONAL OR MORE STRINGENT
REQUIREMENTS THAN THOSE PROVIDED IN THIS SECTION. [for example, can add distance
requirements from schools]
*Note: words in all capital letters are copied verbatim from the bill.

MEMORANDUM
To: Phillip Puckett
Administrator -Town of Buena Vista
From: Robert Christiansen
County Administrator – Chaffee County
Re: Building IGA Revision Request
The Building Department IGA entitled, “Building Inspection and Appeals Board
Intergovernmental Agreement” upon investigation has revealed an irregularity in the
agreement specific to item six on the BV IGA document. It has been determined upon
further examination that the “no fee waiver” language was not transmitted into the
agreement when it was executed back in March of 2012. This language is in the other
respective IGA’s with Salida and Poncha Springs.
We are requesting that this irregularity be changed back to the original text stating that
“there will be no waiver of fees for services performed by the Chaffee County Building
Department with respect to Town projects or Town-owned buildings or property.”
If you would like a new agreement with the above language, I can have legal prepare and
I will send you the original version. This correction will get all parties on the same page
with respect to this subject matter. Once executed please send back to me for processing
on our end.
Thank you for your time and attention to this matter.

B. Article XIV, Section 18(2)(a) and (b) of the Colorado Constitution permits and encourages
governments to make the most efficient and effective use of their powers and responsibilities
by cooperating and contracting with other governments.
C. The Town is in need of a building inspector and is desirous of entering into a contract with
the Board whereby the Chaffee County Building Department will serve as the Town’s
building official and the County’s Board of Review would serve as the Town’s Board of
Appeals, all as more fully set forth in this Agreement.
D. The Board is willing to provide such services, provided the Town adopts and maintains the
same building code as in effect in the County.
E. On ________________, 20122019, by Resolution __ Series 20129 the Town’s Board of

• County IGA – work continues with the County to establish an IGA for growth and development
within Buena Vista’s Three-Mile Growth Area. One of the components of this new IGA will be
the Municipal Service Area (MSA) planning map which identifies properties in the county which
are next to or very near town water supply. Staff will bring this new MSA map for Board review
and approval on October 8th. Moving forward this MSA map will become part of the annually
updated Three-Mile Growth Plan.
• Recycling
• Based on initial discussions with Angel of Shavano, the cost for our current drop site will
increase by 30% in 2020 while at the same time they will no longer take glass

• We have met with a separate service provider to pick up just glass. Their price for glass
is equal to our total 2019 cost
• If we continued with our same level of service in 2020 (Angel of Shavano plus a glass
company) we estimate a 118% cost increase ($11k to $24k)
• Recycling is on the agenda for the September 30th Intergovernmental meeting
